WOW dleedlee - Great Research - Thank you very much !!
Moved my pictures to the allready existing movies and added the english aliases only (maybe some chinese left undone) deleted new movies
Changed the SIU GUEN credits to IVY (Actually I thought she "looks like a young Ivy")

ANY SUGGETION WHERE TO PLACE SUCH STUFF IN FUTURE TO AVOID DOUBLE ENTRIES - I STILL HAVE A LOT OF "UNKNOWN" MOVIES AND I MUST ADMIT MY TIME IS TOO LIMITED FOR A PROPER RESEARCH...

Added Chinese alias for Lady Sings the Blues.

Added a different alias for Princess of a Hundred Flowers but couldn't find an exact title matching what's on your image listed in HKFA. Is it possible it's a regional title from Malaysia? That might also answer the date discrepancies, too, if they were regional adverts/promotions. It puzzled me and threw me off at first.

As to where to put unmatched/unidentified stray images, I suppose you can post as individual ID requestss, or maybe create separate threads by decade if you have a lot.

I know what you mean by lack of time!

Could be
When Roses Bloom, same director, similar cast, title

or
Song on a Rainy Night - Same director, more similar cast - I'm leaning towards this one with Lan Ying-Ying in cast - but not sure

Pot-luck updating

Postby kenichiku » Sun Jun 15, 2008 1:46 am

Minus well join the party (to attack a few of the unattended ones) to shore up the homes for some of Heinz' awe-inspiring work...
A chilled Spring (1975?) Added Movie and 4 Lobbies (Who does Research?)
http://www.hkmdb.com/db/movies/images.m ... ay_set=eng

Here, I'll save you guys the task of compiling your missing Big5s (pinyin/yale)...

賭鬼
Du gui/Dou1 gwai2
Eternal Beauty of Hsi-Shih (1965) Better Poster
http://www.hkmdb.com/db/movies/view.mht ... ay_set=eng

For this one, I think Heinz' images doesn't match the entry title created here (that's a portrait of 'Jiang Ching'). 'Hsi Shih: Beauty of Beauties (1965)' is different epic Taiwanese title altogether (Li Han Hsiang never did any Cantonese film & especially not over there in Taiwan after leaving HK the 1st time) but Lee Sun-fung's exclusively Canto (w/a competing HK version, same year). Look closely at the staff for both & you'll know what I mean.

Danke und Cheers.

"Adventures of a Dancing Girl" is an alias of "Song on a Rainy Night". The 5 titles of the songs that appear in your poster are the same of the other movie according to the HKFA. Removed movie, added images and aliases.

Goddess & the Devil

Postby kenichiku » Mon Jul 28, 2008 3:57 pm

Angel And Devil (1954?) Added Movie & Poster (Who does Research?)
http://www.hkmdb.com/db/movies/image_de ... ay_set=eng

BTW, 'Moon Blanched..' is a HKFA translated title & 'Angel' or 'Goddess' is more official. Anyway, this is not officially a musical but a 'wenyi' aka a melodrama (all genres mostly had songs back in the day). HKFA's English page has a synopsis.

We cannot add images with watermark in our DB. It does not matter if the watermark has been cut, or covered, a watermark is a watermark.
